LDS IGI - not verified
World Family Tree, Vol. 170, Tree 1765 provides Christoph's dates, etc. and states: "He hurt himself cutting grain. Injury led to his death. 1740, Ship 'Lydia.' Mineralogist and farmer. Lutheran."
Gene Burgess" web site states: "Stoph sailed from Dover, England on the 'Lydia' and arrived in America at age 23, settled in Frederick Twp., Philadelphia Co., which is now Montgomery Co., taking charge of a copper mine."
Floyd's "Northumberland County Genealogy" (pp. 837-839) publishes: " The Geist family has been well known in the lower end of Northumberland county for several generations. In 1828 one John Geist was a trustee of the Reformed congregation at the old established Himmel Church, in Washington township, with which the Geists have been prominently identified down to the present day. When St. John's Lutheran and Reformed Church, of Upper Mahanoy township, was organized in 1853 Peter Geist was one of the first trustees.
"Christopher Geist, a German mineralogist, went from his native land to England, and from there was sent to Schwenkville, in Montgomery county, Pa., to manage or superintend a copper mine which is to this day an old landmark of that district. It is believed that one of the sons of this emigrant located in Longswamp township, Berks county. We find that one Christopher Geist came to America in 1740 on the ship "Lydia"; Fried. Wilhelm Geist came on the ship "Ranier" to America in 1749; and Hans Jacob Geist came on the "Brothers" in 1754. It is believed that the Geists now living in the Falkner Swamp district Montgomery county, and the Geists of Longswamp township, Berks county, are of the same stock; and there were other Geists in Chester county, one Matthias Geist living on the west bank of the Schuylkill river in that county (it is thought he was buried at a Mennonite meetinghouse in that county); and John H. Geist, of Sunbury, is a great-grandson of Conrad Geist, who came from Germany about 1760 and located in Berks county. In 1790 there lived in Lancaster county the families of George and Jacob Geist, and in the same year the families of John and Matthew Geist lived in Montgomery county. In 1790 Conrad Geist of the borough of Reading, had three sons over sixteen years old; two daughters; and wife. The same year there is record of George Geist of Longswamp township, Berks county, with one son under sixteen years of age, one daughter, and wife and of Valentine Geist, of Longswamp township with one son under sixteen, two daughters and wife.
"An Andrew Geist died early in January, 1850, in Upper Mahanoy township, Northumberland county; his executors were Andrew Geist and Joseph Feger. Another Andrew Geist died in July 1860; his executor was Solomon Schonkweiler.
"Andrew Geist, grandfather of Wilson H. Geist of Upper Mahanoy township, was born in Upper Mahanoy Jan. 5, 1801, son of Andrew Geist. He lived on the farm there now owned by his son Andrew, a tract of 112 acres which formerly belonged to one Andrew Snyder, and died there Feb. 12, 1878, his son Andrew succeeding him as owner of the property. Earlier he had owned and occupied a farm near by. He and his wife Mary Magdalena (Hepler), born May 4, 1803, died April 5, 1869, are buried at the Himmel Church, where several generations of Geists have been interred. He held several offices as an active member of the Reformed congregation of that church. His children were as follows: Elias located in Jefferson county, Pa.; Sarah married Daniel Seiler; Emanuel, born in 1828, died in 1844; Daniel H. is mentioned below; Lydia, born in 1834, died in 1836; Andrew is mentioned below; John, now (1910) sixty-five years old, has been an invalid all his life, having never been able to walk, and he now lives with Mr. and Mrs. Felix D. Mattern (the latter being his niece), who care for him tenderly, he being entirely helpless (he has a life interest in the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Mattern); Mary is deceased.
"Daniel H. Geist, son of Andrew, was born May 31, 1832, in Upper Mahanoy township, and was a lifelong farmer. He lived three quarters of a mile west of Leck Kill, on a sixty-five-acre tract of valuable land now owned by his son Wilson H. Geist, and built the present barn there about 1875, putting up the house several years later, in 1883. He died there Aug. 13, 1901. He was a Democrat, and served many years as member of the township school board; His religious connection was with the Reformed congregation of the Himmel Church, to which his family also belong, and he served officially as deacon and elder. His wife, Cecellia (Updegraff), daughter of Jacob and Catharine (Kimmel) Updegraff, died Dec. 29, 1896, aged sixty-five years, nine months. They had children as follows: Mary died young; Alice married Rudolph Snyder; James married Mary Rothermel and died while a young man, leaving children, Edwin, Maud and Flossie; Wilson H. is mentioned below; Cassie married William Bast, of Leck Kill, and they have children, Gertie, Jennie, Walter, Morris, Stella, Harry and Clarence; Henrietta married Daniel Kieffer and they live in Washington township; Sylvester died when nine years old; Katie is the wife of William B. Geist.
"Andrew Geist, son of Andrew and brother of Daniel H. Geist, has passed all his life in Upper Mahanoy township, where he was born July 4, 1839. He was reared to farming, which he has always followed. and since his father's death he has owned the homestead place, which is a valuable piece of property and has been kept in a profitable state of cultivation under his efficient management. He met with continued success in his work, and during the later seventies built the fine large brick residence on the farm which he has since occupied. Mr. Geist married Mary Latsha, daughter of the late Michael Latsha, of Jackson township, and they have had five children: Ida married Felix D. Mattern; Agnes married David Trautman; Jesse married Alice C. Reitz; Oscar died young; Ella married Calvin Miller. Mr. Geist and his family are members of the Himmel Church, which he has served as deacon, elder and trustee. On political questions he is a Democrat.
"WILSON H. GEIST, son of Daniel H. Geist, was born Feb. 22, 1867, in Upper Mahanoy township, where he is still engaged in farming, on his father's old homestead near Leck Kill. He received his education in the township schools, and his training to farm work under his father's supervision, working for his parents until he came of age. He has since been farming on the homestead on his own account, and his work has been successful to such an extent that he has been able to add twenty-two acres to the property, having one of the most valuable places along the Greenbrier creek, better known as Swabian creek. Mr. Geist has taken an interest in the local welfare and has served the township as overseer of the poor some years and as member of the road commission since 1907. Politically he is identified with the Democratic party. He and his family are Reformed members of the Himmel Church.
"In 1890 Mr. Geist married Helen Koppenhaver, who was born Feb. 21, 1872, in Shamokin, this county, daughter of Joseph and Rosanna (Faust) Koppenhaver, and they. have had eight children: Maizie Edna, who died when exactly five months old; Beulah May, who died when one year, ten months old; Vertie M.; Earl R.; Edith A.; Luma E.; Helen M., and Russell W.
"Abraham Geist, grandfather of William B. Geist, of Upper Mahanoy township, was born in Upper Mahanoy March 20, 1813, and was a successful farmer and enterprising business man, being one of the first dealers in live stock in his district. He had the best farm in the township, a place of 160 acres. He died Aug. 28, 1883, and is buried at Himmel's Church, as is also his wife, Elizabeth (Hepler), who was born June 10, 1813, and died July 14, 1888. She was a large and powerful woman, weighing nearly three hundred pounds. Besides John H. Geist they had children as follows: Christian (daughter), born in 1834, who died in 1835; Frank; William; Samuel; Lizzie, who married Alexander Gonser and lives at Lewisburg; William (2); Lydia, who married Daniel Swartz and lived at Urban, Pa.; Hettie, who married Jacob Snyder (they are buried at Leck Kill Church); and Polly, who married Michael Powell and (second) a Mr. Shoemaker.
"John H. Geist, son of Abraham, lived for a number of years in Upper Mahanoy township, of which he was one of the best known residents in his day. He was a most enterprising business man, a merchant, huckster, butcher, hotel-keeper and farmer, owned Leck Kill and several large farms there, was postmaster at Leck Kill, and in every way the leading spirit of the place. For ten years before his death he conducted the "Central House" at Williamstown, Dauphin county, and his son John has succeeded him as proprietor of this place. He died there in 1905, at the age of sixty-one years. His widow, Harriet (Beisel), is still living at Williamstown. They had children: Wilson O., William B., Anson, Charles, James, Martin, John and Laura (married to George Troutman and living in Snyder county).
"WILLIAM B. GEIST was born Dec. 5, 1864, at Leck Kill, in the section of Upper Mahanoy township where he still resides. He obtained his education in the local schools, and was reared to farm life, which he has continued to follow. After working for his father until he attained his majority, he has since become one of the best known hucksters in his section. He began raising track and general farm crops for himself in 1890, and now owns a forty-two-acre farm a quarter of a mile east of Leck Kill, which is under profitable cultivation. He has a huckster route which covers his own and surrounding townships, and makes weekly trips to Shenandoah, Ashland and Girardville, disposing of produce and poultry. He has built up a steady custom, and by honorable dealing and reliable methods has gained and retained a large number of patrons who depend upon him for their supplies in his line.
"In 1890 Mr. Geist married Katie Geist, daughter of Daniel H. and Cecellia (Updegraff) Geist, of Upper Mahanoy township, and granddaughter of Andrew and Mary Magdalena (Hepler) Geist. They have had a family of seven children: Gertie S., who married Raymond Haas; Jennie C.; Walter W.; Maurice D.; Stella G.; Harry C., and John. Mr. Geist and his family worship at St. John's Church, belonging to the Reformed congregation. He is a Democrat in political connection, and has served for a number of years as supervisor of Upper Mahanoy township, where he is a most respected citizen."

[55012] "The Ellsworth American [Ellsworth, Maine]," 24 October 2023: "Ellsworth - Lewis Dean Mitchell Sr., 77, passed away in his Ellsworth home on Oct. 20, 2023. Lewis was surrounded by family while holding the hand of his wife of 53 years, Clara Mitchell. Lewis was born Dec. 24, 1945, to parents Roscoe Mitchell of Milbridge and Iola Pinkham of Steuben. After primary school Lewis immediately went to work providing for himself and his family. On Jan. 23, 1970, he married the love of his life, Clara (Chick) Mitchell. Lew spent time working the woods, clamming, and running his junkyard as well as working at Allen's Blueberry for many years before settling in as a truck driver for the City of Ellsworth in 1988. Lew loved to drive. He spent the next 25 years there, driving trucks and plowing snow. He dedicated many days and long nights to the on-call lifestyle that Maine winters brought. There were often years his birthday cake would be put on hold and his family would wait for his return once he had cleared the roads on his route. He took responsibilities to work and his town seriously - he truly loved it. After a brief retirement, he got bored and went back to truck driving for C. E. Grant Trucking. When he wasnt working, he could be found on his ATVs, racing (in his younger years) at the speedway and spectating there as he aged. He loved riding his motorcycle alongside his son Dean, tinkering in the garage on his 65 Ford Galaxie with grandson Sebastian or whatever project had rolled through its door. Hed cruise to town twice daily making Dunkin runs - returning with coffee for his wife and daughter Doe. Always sure to have a donut in hand for his great-grandson and 'Little Buddy' Mitchell, who referred to him as his 'Donut Delivery Man.' Lewis graciously donated his time every Friday, gathering food from The Good Shepherd Food Bank to deliver to the Blue Cross Food Pantry in Lagrange, run by his daughter Tracey. Lewis owned and operated a lawn mowing company for several years with his son Lewis Jr. They focused on local cemeteries, priding themselves on ensuring the veterans memorials each had flags posted before the holidays - he was absolutely adamant about it. He was a gambler at heart - poker with the boys or bingo at the VFW and always had a scratch ticket within reach. A fan of old westerns, 'M.A.S.H' and Andy Griffin, although were unsure how he learned to watch them while he 'rested his eyes.' Lewis was the definition of a family man. Inside his home, he was almost exclusively known as Dad, Daddy, or Pa. Hearing his actual name called was a rarity and typically saved for Clara when someone had already called for him too many times - we joked that it was selective hearing. He was the kind of man who would drop everything for his family and friends. His family was his entire world - a love that was unmatched. Holiday functions were a must for 'Pa,' and he went all out every time. Hauling kids around on the four-wheeler at BBQs, dressing up as Woody on Halloween, attempting to deep-fry a turkey on Thanksgiving (probably the only thing he ever failed at). July 4th involved more fireworks than should have been legal for one family, and Christmas gifts took over the living room in December. He was tough as nails but had the softest heart. He was warm, and full of life right up until his last days. He is survived by his wife Clara and their children and spouses; Dean Mitchell and Valori Mitchell, Ann Howard, Doe Cook and Dale Cook, Tracey Holler and Jason Holler, and Lewis Mitchell Jr. and Rema Mitchell; his siblings Richard 'Dickey' Grindle and Diane Stubbs; sisters-in-law Vadeen Pinkham, Janice Garland and Celeste Cram; brothers-in-law Frank Chick and wife Candy, James Chick and wife Hazel; as well as 16 grandchildren and 22 great-grandchildren. Lewis was preceded in death by his parents, his brother Norman Grindle and wife Charlene, brothers-in-law Robert Pinkham, Edmund Wallace, Ashel Cram, Tony Chick and Austin Stubbs, sister-in-law Linda Grindle, as well as his great-granddaughter Leeona Warren."
